Hi,

Could anyone help me ? It is now a week that I try to make the musiconhold to work, but I don't manage.

Here are the specs of my devices:

- Asus WL500gP
- WhiteRussain 0.9
- Asterisk 1.4 from (http://members.home.nl/hans.zandbelt/op … erisk-1.4/)

My extensions.conf
------------------
exten => s,1,Ringing
exten => s,2,Wait(6)
exten => s,n,WaitMusicOnHold(20)
exten => s,n,MusicOnHold(default)
.....

My musiconhold.conf
-------------------
[default]
mode=files
directory=/usr/lib/asterisk/moh/

(In the /usr/lib/asterisk/moh/ folder I put two musics  *.gsm file. )

The Asterisk log
----------------

[Jul  1 09:08:44] NOTICE[2098]: chan_sip.c:12231 handle_response_peerpoke: Peer 'wengo-didi' is now Reachable. (58ms / 2000ms)

    -- Started music on hold, class 'default', on SIP/titi-1006dad8

Asterisk starts the musiconhold service but I hear no sound on the phone. I don't understant why. I already had read the others users same problems but noone seems to solve mines.

Thanks for your help.

1. are you able to playback and hear sounds such as: Playback(transfer) ?
2. are you able to listen to music-on-hold calling in from another device ?
3. check your gsm music files; which are these and where did you get 'm?

Hans.

1. With the Playback app I am able to have sound back e.g: Playback(/usr/lib/asterisk/hmong-s1), hmong-s1 is my sound file "hmong-s1.gsm".
2. I am not able to have sound with the app musiconhold. I tried everything but no sound.
   I am able to hear sound with the Dial(SIP/XXXX,A(Playback(/usr/lib/asterisk/hmong-s1)).
3. My *.gsm files are in the /usr/lib/asterisk/moh/ folder. I got them with sox utility.
   I tested all my sound files with the Playback/Backgroud app and they are ok. I hear the music.
   It is very strange that I got nothing with the musiconhold app.

Thank for your fast reply.

Do you mean /usr/lib/asterisk/moh/hmong-s1 ? If not you seem to have two locations for the hmong-s1 file...
                                                              ^^^

can you confirm that this:

  exten => s,1,Answer
  exten => s,n,Playback(/usr/lib/asterisk/moh/hmong-s1)
  exten => s,n,MusicOnHold()

works ie. playback works but no moh on the same channel/device ? (you'd have to sit through the playback so I don't hope the song is too long...)

Hans.

I've just wrote an error on the path of the song on my previous message. I confirm that the path is "/usr/lib/asterisk/moh/hmong-s1" and not "/usr/lib/asterisk/hmong-s1".
I am able to have sound with Playback(/usr/lib/asterisk/moh/hmong-s1).  I tried the Dial app ie. Dial(SIP/XXXX,120,m) but no sound returning to the calling party too. I am really desperate because I absolutely need this functionality.

Please, what did you mean by "playback works but no moh on the same channel/device ?" ? For information, the duration of the song is around 3 mn.

Thanks zandbelt, I really appreciate your help.
